We need a new cb. Lovren now has injury issues and Matip is not the long term solution. Why not go in big for de ligt that would give us the option of a back three ie Gomez Del ligt Vvd with trent and Robbo as wing backs. It seems senseless to wait just 4 months when we know we will need to buy for next season. Btw De ligt would be my choice but if we can't get him someone of that quality. It also gives the likes of Hoever time to learn. He will only be 21 in 5 years.

{Ed002's Note - De Ligt will not be moving to Liverpool and I doubt they have the money available to buy him.}

1.) 12 Jan 2019 19:41:47
This defence is the best defence in the premier league for years and years for any team and you think we need to make changes?

4) I don't see what the commotion is about De Ligt. He's looked rather ordinary when I've seen him. But I have to admit, he can't be a full international and Ajax captain at 19 without merit. I just haven't witnessed it myself.

5.) 12 Jan 2019 20:18:23
We have money if needs be and we have players who can be sold so I would not worry about money if klopp needs it I think he will get backed no matter what van dijk and Allison prove that.

12.) 13 Jan 2019 01:54:42
Haha man can some of ya hear yourselves!? So basically we need someone who is good enough, fit enough, has wolverine powers of recovery and will be happy sitting on the bench.

13.) 13 Jan 2019 02:36:27
Who's to say if we were to buy another CB that he'd be fit all season anyway? All teams have certain areas of the pitch that have injuries to more than 1 player at a time. It happens. None of them are long term and the only times we have moved to a back 3 with klopp is in the dying stages of games to try and hang on to a win. Gomez's broken leg was an unlucky impact injury and not muscular, vvd hasn't made it through a full season with us yet either (touch wood he does) . We are not city who can buy world class players to sit on the bench and find a convoluted way of offsetting it to escape ffp. And we have the best defense in the league and still had a clean sheet with a midfielder playing there. We are in good shape.

17.) 13 Jan 2019 14:18:59
Personally, I think we should take a punt on Lloyd Kelly, he’s a really good English prospect and can play left back or centre back very comfortably. He is very rarely found wanting and dominates players much older than himself.

18.) 14 Jan 2019 06:26:54
I agree FMS. I'd put a bid in for Lloyd Kelly. If we get him then ship out Moreno since he has "many offers" and apparently wants to leave for more football, which is fair.

Kelly has this VVD calmness/ cool domeanor to him and is very skillful. Could almost fill in as a winger in an old school 4-4-2. Not that we'd need but he looks like a very versatile and mature young player. I'd take him for the right price!

21 Nov 2018 18:48:11
Probably a question for ed1. Warlock has always waxed lyrical about clyne since his days at palace and there are whispers that Cardiff would be looking to take him in the January TW. How would they fund that type of transfer?

Acered

{Ed001's Note - they have a decent amount of money and Clyne would not be that expensive as we could do with getting his wages off the books.}

{Ed001's Note - I certainly expect him to leave and his options are limited, so it seems the most likely move for him right now.}

2.) 22 Nov 2018 09:25:03
Thought Leicester were also interested in Clyne right? And i hope we get a sale than another loan for every Tom, Dick and Harry in our squad that has no future at the club. Hopefully a BPL side with a 12-15 million pound bid comes in and takes Clyne off our hands.

3.) 22 Nov 2018 13:24:08
He's hardly played for about a year and a half, if we're hoping to get any money for him, it won't be much. The saving is in his wages, and giving him a chance to continue his career.

11.) 02 Jun 2017 09:38:54
Finally, Liverpool actually tell a player their plan honestly. Good news for the future, better players join us knowing where they stand and are happy and comfortable with it then lying to everyone about being our first choice superstars and having them moaning on the bench all season.

22 Dec 2018 22:11:20
Not sure we will sign anyone in this window with the news the ox will be back by Feb.

Acered

1.) 23 Dec 2018 01:00:41
Where have you heard/ read that Oxlade-Chamberlain will be back by February? I thought he would be back at the earliest towards the end of the season (if so I expect nothing more than a cameo role in the last game or two) . He still has a lot of hard work in front of him before he will be match fit. I hope your right I just don't see it personally.

5.) 23 Dec 2018 06:33:04
Exactly stoneage. Having quantity and quality are two different things VakPa. Those 3 players are either not good enough or unwanted by Klopp. If TAA, Alisson or Robbo were to get injured for a considerable period, we are f****d. That will be like handing Man City an additional 10 point booster pack with all the comedy goals we would concede every game.

6.) 23 Dec 2018 06:59:37
Hopefully all 3 of them can be repacked this summer Stoneage, none have ever been good enough sadly. That could be all our business in the summer though, unless Milner/ Lallana/ Sturridge we’re to leave, in which case we would need to add more depth to the midfield/ attack to keep 2 options in each position.

7.) 23 Dec 2018 07:40:34
Acered, Ox ain't coming back till next season and that was announced during preseason already.

Vak, we are INDEED well covered and we don't need anyone right now, IMO. Our injured players will be back in Jan. Klopp was asked about if Lallana is needed or something and he said, "I need all of them". So per Klopp, we are covered. Also in terms of team dynamic, we have a good squad of lads who want to be here and contribute their part to a title challenge and team dynamic and harmony is very essential right now. You having a dig (IMO) by saying we are not covered with Origi, Clyne and Moreno, is not only unhelpful but is NOT true as the facts disagree.

Origi has contributed by scoring the winning goal vs Everton that kick-started this run we are in. Moreno has been helpful when coming on of late and Clyne was solid vs Utd after not playing a single game since May. A signing right now would be nothing but an unnecessary splurge, IMO.

2.) 05 Dec 2018 12:25:57
i terms of the way they move and the type of goals scored, i thought Kristian Nemeth might have become the next Fowler. didn't see enough of him to know how good he really was but the resemblance in body shape was uncannot.

{Ed025's Note - impressive yes AW, against a side who would struggle in league 1 though mate...get back to me when he does it against a decent team..

2.) 24 Oct 2018 22:37:16
I’m a strong believer of ‘you can only best what's in front of you’, red star are certainly not the best team in the competition but its the Champions League and complacency is punished, as were against Napoli and as Napoli were against Red Star. Red Star came for a physical battle, committed 20 fouls with little more than a telling off from the referee, and yet Fabinho had their entire midfield in his pocket. He may have had more time on the ball to pick out good passes, but defensively its hard to neglect how good he was.

8.) 24 Oct 2018 23:54:09
haha I was just responding to "get back to me when he does it against a decent team" and thought the premier league champions were a good choice as he put in particularly good performances. He's done well against plenty of "bigger boys", PSG, Dortmund (though admittedly not in both legs), Tottenham, Bayer Leverkusen, Olympique Lyon. He's done well since moving into the midfield and has great physicality and an eye for a pass, I like him a lot.

Ed025 he may well fail, better players have when moving clubs. But I'm really not sure what you're basing your opinion. It doesn't seem like you watch much Ligue 1 or Monaco Fc in general. Scelticism for the sake of scelticism.

{Ed025's Note - love it razor, but we would batter them as well mate as would crewe i suspect..

10.) 25 Oct 2018 03:22:41
Poor they might be but they’d still beat Everton. But then Everton have never been in the Champions League so they’ve gone one better than you lot anyway.
Just admit you were wrong Ed. I know you hope Fabinho is a lemon but tonight should tell you he’s anything but.

{Ed025's Note - i dont hope fabinho is a lemon bobby...im sure of it!, we would have been in the champions league in the 80,s when we were for me the best team in europe when we won the league mate, unfortunately we were not allowed to enter the competition due to a ban on english sides.....thanks for that..

11.) 25 Oct 2018 06:19:25
Ed025, surely the worst team to ever enter a European competition was the Everton team which was knocked out of first the 2005/ 06 Champions League then the UEFA Cup before the end of September. They were an embarrassment to the city and the country.

{Ed025's Note - that was a referee called collina wirral who knocked us out mate and has since admitted he was wrong, when we were the best in europe in the mid to late 80,s we were not allowed to enter the european cup my friend because of a team that were a disgrace to the city and the country....people who live in glass houses and all that..

13.) 25 Oct 2018 06:38:55
Ed025 is some of the best banter on here, but he sounds like a true bitter bluenose talking about Fabinho. Give the man a chance before we throw around words like ‘lemon’. He looked absolutely on it last night.

{Ed001's Note - you have to remember, he doesn't get to see a lot of European football and clearly must have had his tongue firmly in cheek when he said that. After all, they were good enough to hold Napoli to a draw in the opening group match.}

16.) 25 Oct 2018 11:24:25
He played well. He has been written off the way many klopp signings are as they're slowly integrated into this talented squad. People said the ox would struggle in cm, said Robbie was a stop gap, no better than moreno but they are 2 of our better players. I thought he was excellent. Gini had a solid game too but shaqiri for motm.
The front three looked brilliant, back to their best.

19.) 25 Oct 2018 08:46:56
Ed025, I actually referred to the Everton team of 2005/ 06 as an “embarrassment” not a “disgrace”. I am surprised, and a little disappointed, with your vitriolic response. I thought this site was for banter not bile. Chill
out a bit mate.

06 Oct 2018 18:20:48
Well done to Bobby D today, gets the winning goal against man city under 18s. Any chance we can start a save Jose campaign?

Acered

27 Aug 2018 09:27:36
Trents pass across one side of the park to the other on the volley on the outside of his boot was worth the entrance money alone. Would love to see him in front of the back line in the next 18 months. Replace him at right back with Bissaka.

2.) 27 Aug 2018 09:55:14
Brighton Game - We were poor, yet another organised team who set up a brick wall and we had no answer! Still
relying heavily on the front three. That midfield is not going to score goals. I can bet the whole Europe on it.

The new way of justifying a poor performance - Grinding out results 😂😂😂.

4.) 27 Aug 2018 10:17:45
perception what are you on about? we had an answer- we scored a goal and the defence ensure we kept a clean sheet. chelsea were poor many times under conte but got the win in the same way. man und under ferguson had countless games like that. even city got results against the likes of palace and southampton. I've never seen a title winning team that hasn't had performances like that.

Aint to many teams about that aren't managed by tony pulis that don't rely on their frontline to score goals.

A 4-3-3 will naturally give the lions share of the chances to the front 3.

Chelsea struggled against newcastles brick wall yesterday like most teams previously struggled against moaninho's brick wall over the years. Its pretty hard to shoot through a brick wall. Early goals and sometimes even a second is what it takes to open the game up.

Even when liverpool went 1 nil up brighton remained discipled throughout right up to the end of the game. But in no way did liverpool grind out a result. Massively in control the whole game and but for a better pass or a slight bit of better composure it would have been 2-0 forcing brighton to come out and take a few more risks. When that happens it goes to 3 or 4 nil.

Im honestly a bit miffed how people are complaining about 3 wins out of 3 and three clean sheets.

8.) 27 Aug 2018 12:10:10
Perception your perception is pointless. What gives you the right to think we are going to just smash teams to pieces? Show some respect to a well organised team who made us work for the points.
Ps WE WON!

12.) 27 Aug 2018 20:47:50
And there he is, the Great Perception or Harry. Tell me, are you ever wrong? We could have been 3 up at half time BUT we did not take our chances so there goes your idea that we were poor. Secondly, we did not play our best in the send half BUT got the 3 points BUT you are still moaning even tho, you keep saying that "winning while not playing your best is the sign of champions or a very good team". So which is it? Mind you, had we put 5 past them, you would say, "Meh, let's see what happens when we play the big boys" or something contrarian. So in essence, all you do is just be a contrarian for literally no reason. Must be boring being your type of "supporter".

13 Jan 2019 12:24:59
Hoever and Philips to young, Lovren injury prone Matip not good enough so it leaves us taking our best holding midfielder playing centre back and yes fab done really well but this is Brighton we are talking about. This site is about opinions and banter and Not abuse so while us posters may not always agree with each other we have to respect other points of view as well as having our own. At the end of the day we all want Liverpool fc to be successful.
